Latest Sailing World
Cup strategy snubs
Southern Hemisphere
Australian Sailing has expressed its disappointment in
elements of World Sailing’s new strategy and format for the
Sailing World Cup.
The new Series format has no Southern Hemisphere venues
scheduled for the next four years, with only the possibility of an
opportunity in 2018. The immediate impact is that this year’s
Sailing World Cup event in Melbourne will be the last after nine
successful years.
Australian Sailing CEO Matt Carroll said, “ We support World
Sailing’s plan to create a long-term strategy and certainty in the
sailing calendar and to build closer ties with the Olympic classes.
“However, with Melbourne now removed from the Series,
World Sailing has effectively snubbed the Southern Hemisphere
with their showcase event.”
“ World Sailing has been pushing for sailing to be an inclusive
global sport, but the exclusion of the Southern Hemisphere
as a host venue for the Sailing World Cup would seem to be a
backward step,” Carroll added.
At the recent Rio Olympic Games, Australia and New Zealand
shared the honour of the highest medals per country with four
each, and four of the top 10 countries in the medal tally were
from the Southern Hemisphere.
Sailing World Cup Melbourne Organising Committee
Chairman, Mark Klemens was also surprised by the announcement
that unfortunately no longer includes the Southern Hemisphere
in this pinnacle global series.
“ While we have enjoyed working closely with World Sailing
to assist in the creation and development of the Sailing World
Cup since its inception, we are disappointed that the new series
format doesn’t include Australia and in particular Melbourne,”
Klemens said.
“I particularly wish to thank the State Government of Victoria
who have been longstanding and generous supporters of this
event and the sport of sailing since 1991, the Melbourne Clubs
and other stakeholders.”
Matt Carroll joined Mark in thanking the Victorian Government
for their investment in sailing. “ While we are disappointed by the
decision, there is no doubt that this investment has supported
the Australian Sailing Team’s recent success at the Olympic
Games in London and Rio. h
